4EAT Phase 2 Introduction The 4EAT Phase 2 (introduced on 1999 Model Year vehicles) provides the same type of electronic control used by prior model year vehicles and shares many of the same diagnostic procedures, however there have been internal and external changes that require this 4EAT to be viewed as an entirely new automatic transmission. Additionally, beginning with the 2001 model year, an enhancement to the all wheel drive transfer section was introduced. This enhancement, Variable Torque Distribution (VTD), is covered in this reference booklet starting on page 9.
6
5
Externally, the number of bolts in the torque converter housing area have increased to match the increase in the number of bolts in the bell housing of the engine. The use of an external canister type oil filter has been adopted which requires no scheduled maintenance. Three speed sensors are now located on the outside surface of the transmission case reading rotational speeds of internal components improving transmission characteristics. Internally the Brake Band and Servo Mechanism have been deleted and in its place an additional clutch pack is used as a holding member for second and fourth gear. Also the remaining clutch assemblies and the valve body have been redesigned requiring new disassembly and assembly procedures.

4EAT Phase 2 Disassembly Before beginning the disassembly process, label the speed sensors so that they are not incorrectly installed during reassembly.
9
Remove vehicle Speed Sensor 1 from the extension case. Followed by the bolts that secure the extension case to the rear of the transmission.
10
11
Set the select lever to the park position to engage the Parking Pawl to the front of the reduction drive gear.
12
Straighten the peen mark of the locknut. (This locknut is designed to be used only once.) Remove the locknut and washer. Clean the threaded portion of the backside of the Reduction Driven Gear and install the special tool puller. (499737000 and 899524100)
14
13
Turn the puller until the Reduction Driven Gear has cleared the Pinion shaft. 7
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2
15
Install the reduction drive gear puller to the rear of the transmission as shown and slowly remove the drive gear assembly. (499737100 and 899524100)
16
17
Disconnect the Transfer Duty Solenoid Connector and remove the bolts that secure the Duty Solenoid and Transfer Control Valve to the Transmission Case. Remove the small filter from the cavity in the Transmission case at this time. Remove the Parking Pawl, spring and Parking Pawl Shaft.
18
The Transfer Duty Solenoid controls the amount of pilot pressure supplied to the backside of the Transfer Control Valve Piston. If the duty ratio signal from the Transmission Control Unit (TCU) is small the Transfer Duty Solenoid stays off more than it is on and drains less of the pilot pressure. This will result in an upward movement of the control valve increasing the amount of line pressure to the Transfer Clutch. An increase in the duty ratio turns the solenoid on more than it is off and drains more of the pilot pressure. The Transfer Control Valve moves downward restricting the amount of line pressure to the Transfer Clutch. 8
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2
19
The next step in the disassembly process is to remove the Oil Pan. Position the transmission on the worktable with the Oil Pan facing upward and held in position with wooden blocks. Remove the Oil Pan Bolts. Use a putty knife or similar tool with a hammer and carefully separate the pan from the transmission. Do not score or scratch the mating surface.
Variable Torque Distribution (VTD) Variable Torque Distribution (VTD) is an addition to the current 4EAT transfer section. VTD is designed to smoothly transfer and divide the power from the engine to the wheels. This new system for North America is equipped on all Subaru vehicles with Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC). Rear internal gear located inside the transmission
Reduction Driven Gear (Supplies power to front wheels) 53 Teeth
21
The view of the extension case area is similar to the current 4EAT Phase 2. The difference is the Reduction Drive Assembly. Reduction Drive Gear 53 teeth
Multi-Plate Clutch Drum
Intermediate Shaft (Splines into Rear Internal Gear)
Pinion Gear (Two Gears turning as one) both gears are 21 teeth
22
An Intermediate Shaft is splined to the Rear Internal Gear, carrying power to a Sun Gear. The Sun Gear is made onto the end of the Intermediate Shaft. The rotating Sun Gear delivers power to a set of Pinion Gears.
9
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 Sun Gear
23
The Pinion Gears are two gears made together. The smaller gear and larger gear have the same number of teeth. The Intermediate Sun Gear drives the smaller Pinion Gear and the larger Pinion Gear.
24
The Pinion Gear is secured to the carrier and delivers power to it. The carrier will now rotate, driving the Reduction Drive Gear. This supplies power to the front wheels. At the same time, the larger Pinion Gear is driving the Rear Drive Shaft.
18 teeth
25
A Sun Gear made on to the end of the Rear Drive Shaft receives the power and transfers the power to the shaft. The final drive shaft is splined to the Rear Drive Shaft. This carries power to the rear differential.
10
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 45.45%
54.55%
26
Assuming the friction of the front and rear tires is the same, the power is split 54.55% to the rear and 45.45% to the front. During equal friction driving
27
The Front Wheels load the reduction drive and driven gears. The Rear Wheels load the Rear Drive Shaft and Pinion Gears. Driving the vehicle results in the Pinion Gears rotating and advancing around the Intermediate Sun Gear. The Intermediate Sun Gear has 33 teeth; the Small Pinion has 21 teeth. The Rear Drive Shaft Sun Gear has 18 teeth; Large Pinion has 21 teeth. You can calculate the power split by dividing 18 by 33 for the Rear Wheels. The remaining power drives the Front Wheels.
28
The TCM adjusts the duty ratio of the MPT clutch to maintain the optimum transfer of power. A large speed difference in the rear to the front wheels results in the MPT clutch locking the Rear Drive Shaft to the carrier. Power is then split 50% to the front and 50% to the rear.
11
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2

The High Clutch Drum houses the high and reverse clutch. The high clutch is applied in all 3rd and 4th gear ranges. The Reverse clutch is applied in the reverse range only. Position the high clutch with the open end facing upward. The lower positioned clutch assembly is the high clutch. The wide end of the High Clutch Hub engages with these drive and driven plates while the smaller end of the High Clutch Hub engages with the Front Planetary Carrier. The reverse clutch plates engage with the top section of the front Sun Gear. The lower section of the front Sun Gear engages with the 2-4 brake clutch. Any time the 2-4 brake clutch is applied the front Sun Gear assembly is fixed to the case of the transmission and cannot rotate. The High Clutch Drum itself is splined to the turbine shaft. When the high clutch is applied the power from the drum is transferred to the rear Sun Gear via the High Clutch Hub and turns the rear planetary carrier. Remove the Upper Leaf Spring. This device reduces chatter and vibration. Carefully observe its location.
45
44
Remove the planetary assemble as a unit. Followed by the Snap Ring and Spring Retainer of the 2-4 Brake Piston. Observe the location of the 2-4 locating lug of the 2-4 Brake Piston so that it is properly positioned during reassembly.

Check the operation of the Low Clutch by placing the one way clutch inner race into the bottom of the Low Clutch Drum and applying air pressure to the pressure port. Caution: Do not place hands inside drum when air checking. Check the operation of the One Way Clutch at this time. It should not allow the Low Clutch Drum to rotate counter clockwise. The Low Clutch is applied in all forward gears except 4 th. When applied the Low Clutch locks the rear internal gear to the Low Clutch Drum. In 1st gear this action initially turns the Low Clutch Drum counterclockwise. However, the One Way Clutch catches the drum and prevents it from turning. The rear internal gear locked to Low Clutch Drum via the Low Clutch now makes the planetary pinions revolve around the rear Sun Gear. This turns the rear planetary carrier, which is connected, to the reduction drive gear assembly.

4EAT Phase 2 Hydraulic Control Line Pressure
68
Line pressure provides the force necessary to engage driving and holding members as well as lubricate and cool the transmission. Adjusting the line pressure to various levels reduces the amount of load placed on the engine and minimizes wear on the transmission. Line pressure is adjusted using data that indicates throttle opening, vehicle speed, and other input signals. Control of the pressure during low load conditions results in a duty ratio, or on verses off time that is large. This duty ratio results in the PL Duty Solenoid staying on more than it is off. Pilot pressure is drained away from the Pressure Modifier Valve. Resulting circuit action lowers the pressure in the lower side of the Pressure Regulator Valve allowing line pressure in the upper side of the valve to push the valve down increasing the amount of pressure drained from the line pressure circuit.
69 21
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 Control during high load conditions results in a low duty ratio increasing the pressure to the pressure modifier valve. This will result in an increase in pressure to the bottom of the pressure regulator valve creating an upward movement of the pressure regulator valve. Reducing the amount of line pressure drained. The amount of line pressure throughout the transmission will then increase.
70
Lock up control engages the Lock Up Clutch inside the Torque Converter when traveling in 4th gear under uniform conditions, transmitting engine power directly to the Input Shaft. Lock up Engagement
1. The TCM increases the duty ratio and the oil drainage rate increases in proportion to the duty ratio. 2. The lock up control valve is pushed down, connecting the torque converter regulator valve port and the lock up application port. 3. Oil pressure from the Torque Converter Regulator Valve is conducted through the application port to the torque converter and the Torque Converter Clutch. The lock up release port ATF is drained through the lockup control valve at this time. 4. The lock up clutch is engaged by the oil pressure from the lock up application port. After the clutch is engaged, the TCM lock up duty solenoid ratio is fixed in the on position. Lock up Release
1. The Duty Ratio of the Lock up solenoid is adjusted to 5%. Drainage of the duty solenoid oil is stopped and the lock up duty pressure rises. 2. The lock up control valve spool is pushed up, connecting the torque converter regulator valve port and the torque converter release port. 22
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 3. Oil pressure from the Torque Converter Regulator Valve is conducted through the release port to the Torque Converter Clutch and the Torque Converter Application Circuit. 4. The Clutch Plate moves away from the Torque Converter Case and the Lock up Clutch is released. Gear Shift Control The shift control operates the engagement and release of the Low Clutch, 2-4 Brake, and the High Clutch. TCM output signals control Shift Solenoid A and Shift Solenoid B based on input from vehicle speed and throttle opening. The solenoids in turn supply or remove pilot pressure from Shift Valve A and Shift Valve B. The positioning of the shift valves route line pressure to the correct clutch and or brake assemblies.
23
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 1st gear
When the selector lever is placed in the D range the manual valve opens the port to the shift valves A and B supplying Line pressure. Shift solenoids A and B are turned on by the TCM and pilot pressure is applied to the top of both Shift Valves. The Shift valves move to the bottom of their bores providing a route for line pressure to the Low Clutch.
71
24
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 2nd Gear
TCM output turns shift solenoid A off and shift solenoid B on. Shift valve A moves upward and opens the 2-4-Brake port. The Low Clutch and 2-4 brake are now applied.
72
25
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 3rd Gear
Both solenoids are turned off allowing the pilot pressure supplied to the shift valve to drain. The shift valves move upward allowing line pressure to the Low Clutch and the High Clutch.
73
26
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 4th Gear
The TCM turns shift solenoid A on and B off. Pilot pressure is supplied to the top of shift valve A which results in the valve moving downward closing the passage for the Low Clutch and opening the passage for the 2-4 brake. The High Clutch and 2-4 brake is now applied.

4EAT Phase 2 TCM Control Normal Shifting
The logic for all gear ranges is stored in the TCM memory and is mainly influenced by the throttle opening and vehicle speed. Monitoring of these signals enables the TCM to turn on or off the shift solenoids enabling up and down shifting. Slope Control
This control regulates shifting up from 3 rd to 4th gear when traveling uphill and forcefully downshifts from the 4 th to 3rd gear when traveling downhill. The TCM determines the driving force of the traveling vehicle from input of the speed sensor signals, throttle signal, turbine sensor signal, etc.. and forcefully maintains 3 rd gear. Control at Low Temperature
To prevent shift shock, shifting up to D range 4 th gear is not performed when the ATF temperature is below approximately 12 degrees C. Control During ABS Operation
During ABS operation the TCM forces the transmission to 3 rd gear. This allows the ABS control to exhibit its maximum effect. Engine Over Speed Prevention Control
Engine over speed is controlled by a fuel cut.
77
29
Effective: 4/10/01
4EAT Phase 2 Timing Control Timing control is designed to prevent shift shock and engine racing. Two types of timing control are used with the new eat. 2-4 brake timing and Low Clutch Timing. 2-4 brake timing is utilized during the upshift from 2 nd to 3rd gear. This control temporarily engages both the 2-4 brake and the high clutch, preventing shift shock and engine racing when upshifting from 3 rd to 4th gear. When the TCM turns the 2-4 brake timing solenoid on the 2-4 brake-timing valve A is acted upon by the high clutch pressure. The 2-4-Brake Timing Valve Spool is pushed down as the high clutch pressure overcomes the set pressure. The movement of the spool valve changes the draining characteristics of the 2-4 brake accumulators. The faster the back pressure of the accumulators drain the faster the release of the 2-4-Brake Clutch.
78 30

4EAT Phase 2 Low Clutch Timing Control Low Clutch Timing Control is designed to prevent shift shock and engine racing when the transmission is upshifting from 3 rd to 4th gear. During the upshift to 4 th gear the 2-4-Brake clutch and the Low Clutch are temporarily engaged together. At the same time the Low Clutch Timing Solenoid is activated controlling the pilot pressure applied to top side of the Low Clutch Timing valve B. The movement of the Low Clutch Timing valve B spool regulates the 2-4 brake apply pressure to the top of Low Clutch Timing valve A. When this pressure overcomes the set pressure the spool valve moves down, changing the draining characteristics of the Low Clutch accumulator back pressure. The faster the back pressure of the accumulator drains the faster the low clutch fully disengages. Control performed by the PL Duty Duty Solenoid D uty Solenoid and the 2-4 Brake Duty Solenoid The line pressure duty solenoid and the 2-4 brake duty solenoid are adjusted to set values determined from preexisting conditions of the vehicle just before an up shift or down shift occurs. This set value is lower than the applied value and is designed to prevent shift shock and improve shifting characteristics. The drop in both duty pressures cause the accumulator control valve A and B spool valves to move up, and the low clutch and 2-4 brake accumulator back pressures to be reduced. This allows the accumulators to absorb a larger shock when the clutches are applied. The turbine sensor detection signal inputted to the TCM influences the rate in which the duty ratios are increased. Down shifting from 4 th to 3rd The line pressure and 2-4 brake duty solenoid are adjusted to a lower set value just before the actual downshift. This drops the back pressure in the high and 2-4 brake accumulators. The lowered back pressure allows the applied pressures to be lower, creating a slipping condition of the high and 2-4 brake. Higher engine speeds will then be obtained, generating a higher driving force to the rear internal gear. The TCM gradually increases the duty ratios eliminating the slip. Engine Torque Control
Engine torque control is performed by the engine control module which lowers the engine torque by retarding the engine ignition timing and cutting the fuel supply, reducing shift shock. While shifting is in progress, the TCM detects the brake and clutch engagement \ release conditions by comparing the turbine sensor signal and the speed sensor signals. The TCM outputs a signal to the ECM to reduce the torque when set conditions are reached.

4EAT Phase 2 Learning Control
Learning control is utilized to prevent shift shock that is created because of clutch and brake wear. The TCM always detects the turbine sensor signal after starting shift control. It measures the time from when this signal changes until the clutch or brake starts to engage and the time from that point until the clutch or brake fully engages. The TCM compares these times and their respective target values and determines the clutch or brake status. Based on the results, it decides the operating characteristics of the line pressure control solenoid and the 2-4 brake duty solenoid. By controlling the line pressure control solenoid and the 2-4-Brake solenoid based on these operating characteristics, increased shift shock due to change with passage of time can be prevented.
79 Reverse Inhibit Control
Designed to prevent the accidental shift into reverse gear . This feature is only active above 10km/h (6 m.p.h.). The Low Clutch Timing solenoid is turned on allowing pilot pressure to build up on the top side of the Reverse Inhibit valve. The valve spool is then pushed down blocking the passageway to the low and reverse brake.

4EAT Phase 2
80 Engine Brake Control
Engine brake operation will occur in the 1 range 1 st gear. The TCM turns the Low Clutch Timing Solenoid on and supplies pilot pressure to the reverse inhibit valve. The pilot pressure causes the reverse inhibit valve spool to move downward, opening the port to the low and reverse brake. Pressure from the 1 st reducing valve engages the low and reverse brake. The Low Clutch Drum is then fixed to the transmission case and the rotation of the wheels is transmitted to the engine side, operating the engine brake effect.

4EAT Phase 2 Self Diagnosis Slides 82, 83, and 84
The TCM detects trouble in the detection signals from the sensors and the signals output to the actuators. This function is referred to as the self-diagnosis function. When either signal is faulty, the TCM indicates system trouble by flashing the ATF lamp in the combination meter. By counting the flashes of the lamp a trouble code can be specified. CODE ITEM
